Define Respondent Stimulus Discrimination, and Give an Example

Question

Examlex · Accepted Answer

The Answer is Respondent stimulus discrimination is when a stimulus functions as a CS to elicit a CR because that stimulus has been paired with a US that elicits that CR, but a similar stimulus does not function as a CS for that CR because that second stimulus has been paired with extinction trials.Suppose, for example, that a child learns a fear of dogs after having been bitten by the neighbor's Scottish terrier.Later, the family buys a friendly poodle and the sight of the poodle, although it initially elicited fear in the child, it gradually does not do so after frequent exposure to the pet poodle without being bitten.The child is discriminating between the poodle and the terrier.Any appropriate example is acceptable.
